SECTION 6. MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
DO NOT HOSE DOWN UNIT AS IT
CONTAINS ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS.

6.1 GENERAL

This section contains both preventive and correc-
tive maintenance information. Preventive main-
tenance may be performed by maintenance per-
sonnel at the establishment in which the cooker is
installed. It is recommended that user personnel
never attempt to make repairs or replacements to
the equipment without the assistance of autho-
rized service. Assistance in service methods or
a current Directory of Authorized Agencies may
be obtained from Market Forge (see Subsection
1.3).

6.2 PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE

A good preventive maintenance program begins
with the daily cleaning procedure described in
Subsection 3.3. Additional preventive mainte-
nance operations are presented in this section. In
establishments that employ full-time maintenance
personnel, the tasks described can be assigned
to them. For other installations, tasks requiring
mechanical or electrical experience should be
performed by an authorized service agency.
The following paragraphs set forth minimum pre-
ventive maintenance procedures that must be
completed periodically to assure continued trou-
ble-free operation of the cooker.
CAUTION:
Under no circumstances should hardware
(or parts) be replaced with a different length,
size, or type other than as specified in the
parts list. The hardware used in the cooker
has been selected or designed specifically
for its application, and the use of other hard-
ware may damage the equipment and will
void any warranty.

6.2.1 COOKING COMPARTMENT CLEANING

A daily cleaning of the cooking compartments and
pan supports is required. See Subsection 3.3 for
details.
